U.S.-Iran Conflict Day 35: High-Level Military Resignations and Strikes on Tech Infrastructure

The conflict between the United States and Iran has entered its 35th day, marked by a significant restructuring of U.S. military leadership and an expansion of targets to include civilian technological infrastructure. U.S. Army Chief of Staff General Randy George has retired, reportedly following a request for his removal by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. Amidst these leadership changes, the U.S. has deployed advanced hardware, including EA-37B electronic warfare aircraft, to enhance its operational capabilities against Iranian forces. The scope of the war has widened geographically and strategically. The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed responsibility for strikes against an Amazon cloud computing center in Bahrain and a U.S. technology data center in Dubai, signaling a shift toward disrupting regional economic and technological hubs. Concurrently, Israeli forces have continued targeting IRGC sites in Tehran, including ground force bases and mobile command centers. President Trump has intensified his rhetoric, warning of "extremely hard" strikes over the coming weeks to finalize U.S. objectives. Diplomatic tensions are also rising as reports indicate the Trump administration may halt weapon supplies to Ukraine to pressure European allies into forming a "coalition of the willing" to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian officials have responded with warnings of "crushing and devastating" retaliation, vowing to continue the conflict until their opposition surrenders.
